Rick Riordan Quote
Percy and Hedge lay on the deck, looking exhausted. Hedge was missing his shoes. He grinned at the sky, muttering, Awesome. Awesome. Percy was covered in nicks and scratches, like he’d jumped through a window. He didn’t say anything but he grasped Annabeth’s hand weakly as if to say, Leo, Piper, and Jason, who’d been eating in the mess hall, came rushing up the stairs. What? What? Leo cried, holding a half-eaten grilled cheese sandwich. Can’t a guy even take a lunch break? What’s wrong?Followed! Frank yelled again. Followed by ? Jason asked.I don’t know! Frank panted. Whales? Sea monsters? Maybe Kate and Porky!Annabeth wanted to strangle the guy, but she wasn’t sure her hands would fit around his thick neck. That makes absolutely no sense.
